WHAT IS THE THUMB RULE FOR DECIDING THE CURRENT RATING OF
COPPER WIRES SAY 2.5/4/6/10 MM SQUARE SIZES??

Answer Posted / arun kr. singh

The Thumb rule is:

Size of cable x 4 = Current rating of cable.

e.g rating of 2.5mmsq cable is: 2x4=8A
for 4mmsq cable is: 4x4=16A

Is This Answer Correct ?    15 Yes 32 No
